Medicine Application Workshop for Prospective Medical Students

From 46 £ /h

Hi Prospective Medical Students!

I'm Hugo, I'm a fourth-year medical student at the University of Leeds. I have been tutoring for 6 years and have been doing medical school admissions for the last 2 years. I have recently helped at the University of Leeds Medical Interviews for prospective applicants too, so I know how to make you stand out from the crowd!

My workshop can be a one-off session or a series of lessons to detail every part of the application process to medical schools, from choosing medical schools to UCAS forms, and from UCAT/BMAT to interview prep. My tutoring style is flexible depending on what the student prefers. I have a host of practice interview questions to help gain your confidence, as well as tips to show the medical school how great you are.

Outside of tutoring I have just received Honours for my Intercalated Masters in Medical Research, and presented my research at the British Cardiovascular Society and European Society of Cardiology conferences, receiving a prize for the "Best of the Best Clinical Abstracts" for the former. I also received 3 A*s for Biology, Maths and Chemistry for A-Level and have a Level 3 AQA Tutor/Befriender Qualification.

Let me know if you would like to discuss this further, I can be flexible.

Have a good day!

About Me

I'm a 4th year medical student at the University of Leeds, having just received a distinction in my Masters in Research and won 'Best of the Best' for Heart Failure Research at the British Cardiovascular Society Conference 2024. I have been tutoring for 6 years both online and in person, with all ages and complexity of tasks, and have helped run the University of Leeds Medical School Interviews. My specialties are in Maths, Sciences and university admissions.

Honours & Awards:
 Charles Turner Thrackrah Prize (I&P) 2021-2022
 Wolfson Foundation Intercalated Degree Research Fellowship 2023
 BCS 2024 “Best of the Best” Clinical Abstracts for Heart Failure Award.
 European Society of Cardiology 2024 poster presentation

Work/ Research Experience:
 Hugo is in the process of publishing a paper on the timing of comorbidities in relation to
heart failure as of 17/08/2024 as part of the Kearney group at the University of Leeds,
alongside his medical degree.

Roles & Responsibilities:
 I have tutored children in deprived areas with learning difficulties in a voluntary capacity
as part of an organisation called “Success4All” in Newcastle. This role entailed making sure
children were comfortable and settled before, during and after tutoring, and building a
rapport to ensure they learned as easily as possible.

Co-Curricular:
 I have been president of the University of Leeds-based student society ‘Teddy Bear
Hospital’, a volunteering society that goes to nearby schools and educates children about
healthcare to alleviate fears and inform about living healthily, including teaching on diet,
exercise and mental health for younger ages, and anatomy and surgery for older years. I
was a pioneer of a scheme now running every year called “MediTeddies”, where the society
builds and donates teddy bears that have colostomy bags, catheters, and central lines to
help educate children in paediatric surgical wards.
 I am an avid rugby, tennis and cricket player, and like to climb mountains when not at
placement.

I am originally from Flanders, Hasselt, and lived in Liège for a few years, now I live in Tongeren, a 20-minute drive from Liège.

I offer you individual help in Dutch.

Because every student is different, these courses are aimed at helping you learn Dutch in a way that you enjoy. To progress in the best way and to work effectively. This is to acquire and adapt an individual working method.

Support in the areas of hiring:

- Writing and presentation of a hard-hitting CV both in form and content (how to arouse the interest of the reader and how to be invited to a job interview).
-Writing of a motivation letter (response to a job offer or spontaneous application).
- Preparation and repetition of a job interview (key questions ... to say and not to say)
- Techniques to optimize verbal and non-verbal communication

Together we identify the relevant elements that guarantee you a CV that attracts attention and guarantees that you will be invited to a job interview.

During the rehearsal of a job interview, we prepare the answers to give, the aspects not to say. I work on both the verbal and the nonverbal aspects. If desired, a video can be recorded and analyzed together.

Both 11 Plus and 13 Plus entrance to British schools are highly competitive and passing the demanding examinations is only part of the process; candidates are asked for interview and in order to stand out from the competition, they need to be prepared for challenging questions. I am experienced and skilled in preparing students for interview.

Adapted to each case and need, the objective is support in accessing a job, from the search for departure to the signing of the contract:
- After the search and selection of relevant advertisements, establish and illustrate your transversal skills profile then create an attractive CV and write a striking cover letter highlighting your professional background
- stand out in the preparation of their interviews, from oral presentation to expression through appropriate body language. Interview simulation & video analysis filmed if necessary.
- Identify your values, promote your professional project / your assets and strengths but also work on areas for improvement in order to find new momentum in your career.

Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.

Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 sessions. (study 2020)

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne.

But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (example: chat notes that can be read later).
In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place in a very optimal way and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. Take good care of yourself and yours.
